FORMER baseball slugger José Canseco is launching a new career as a boxer, and it isn’t easy. A rep for the steroid abuser sent out an e-mail the other day: “We are looking for a big opponent/athlete to step into the ring and fight ‘The Bad Boy of Baseball’ José Canseco in a boxing match, live on Saturday, July 12, at the Atlantic City Bernie Robbins Stadium. The person picked will be paid $5,000 and become a star overnight. There will be a full undercard and if you are not picked you may have a shot on the undercard.”
